Man's Best Friend Lyrics

I got this friend of mine, we hang out all the time

Whenever we find ourselves in the same town

But that aint always the case, so when it is we purchase a case

And we crack one after each hollow aluminum sound

He went east to Texas, I went north to Oregon

Our four wheels, they got us where we needed to go

But with each mile we drove apart our friendship seemed to grow stronger

A feelin' I know I'm lucky enough to know.

This just is one of them occasions just a couple friends doin it right

Take a bullet or a knife, when you both know you're in it for life

And when it all boils down you're gonna find in the end

That a dog is a man's best friend

And it'd be a shame to have a friend like that, and not have his back until the end

So it's true you're my friend, but that aint how it's always been

I suppose I spent those first 6 years alone

But summer trips to the lake, and bein' there when momma passed away

Created this bond as strong as stone

We both played our hands at love, it taught us the importance of

Never lettin' anybody get between you and me

Always on the other side of the line, when the sun down seem to shine

Through the good times and the bad you're never missin' a beat

This just is one of them occasions just a couple friends doin it right

Take a bullet or a knife, when you both know you're in it for life

And when it all boils down you're gonna find in the end

That a dog is a man's best friend

And it'd be a shame to have a homie like that, and not have his back until the end

Shit man ain't it strange, how some shit never changes

Leave us barefoot in the rain and we'll still crack a smile

N when we're both old n grey, n still aint ran out of shit to say

To one another guess we'll laugh and talk of our decades of runnin' wild.

Yeah we'll laugh and talk about gettin' a flat in Las Cruces

And crack a smile

This just is one of them occasions just a couple friends doin it right

Take a bullet or a knife, when you both know you're in it for life

And when it all boils down you're gonna find in the end

That a dog is a man's best friend

And even after all the crazy shit we've gotten in if I could do it over I'd do it again
